Grace Shaped Lives, part 9. The world tells us that life is about you: your needs, your preferences and your desires. Yet 1 Corinthians tells us we were made to be a part of something much bigger than ourselves. By Ben Holbrook Sunday 5th July 2026 Captured from the livestream

In this episode, Bruce reflects on 1 Corinthians 12:4–7 and the truth that every Christian has been given gifts by the Holy Spirit for the common good.God does not give every person the same gift or ask every person to serve in the same way. Some people encourage, some lead, some organize, some pray, some give generously, and some quietly serve behind the scenes. Each gift matters because each gift has been entrusted by God.Bruce reminds us that comparison can distract us from using what God has already placed within us. The Church does not need us to become someone else. It needs us to become fully the person God created us to be.What gift has God placed within you, and how is He asking you to use it for others?
1 Corinthians 12:12–31 teaches that one body, many gifts—every member matters in the life of the church. Though believers have different gifts and roles, all are united in Christ and equally valuable. This passage calls the church to embrace unity, mutual care, and faithful service for the growth of Christ's body.Series: Truths from the corinthiansSpeaker: Charles MathewScripture: 1 Corinthians 12:12–31Sermon: 28Notes: https://1drv.ms/b/c/2d96a468bbf967d6/IQA_nhlNay1PSaL5Awrs6sZaAUmUfYkNIzEO-hcLqVElm-k?e=bcibzq

Send us Fan MailThis Podcast is part of a 10-year project to complete an in-depth, daily study of the entire Bible, chapter by chapter, verse by verse. Episode Notes: Walking in Righteousness - Speaking the Truth in Love. (Ephesians 4: 25)Saved by Grace, United in One Body. Earlier in this letter, Paul reminded us that it is: “By grace you have been saved through faith… it is the gift of God…” (Ephesians 2:8) We are saved by grace, not by our performance. And when we trust Christ, we become part of something bigger than ourselves — the Body of Christ. We are joined to one another. We belong to one another. We grow with one another. We serve one another. That's why Paul said yesterday our purpose is “…to equip His people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up…” (Ephesians 4:12–13)The Journey of Spiritual Growth. In yesterday's study, we were given three foundational principles: 1. Put off the old self“…put off your former way of life…” (4:22)Take off the old habits, the old attitudes, the old patterns of sin — like taking off an old coat. 2. Renew your mind“…be made new in the attitude of your minds…” (4:23)Let Scripture reshape your thinking so you begin to think God's thoughts rather than simply reacting to the world around you. 3. Put on the new self“…put on the new self, created to be like God…” (4:24)Replace old vices with new virtues. Replace old habits with new patterns. Replace old ways of speaking with new ways of speaking. But now — beginning in verse 25 — Paul gets specific. He gives us five concrete examples of what spiritual growth looks like in everyday life. And over the next five episodes, we're going to take each one in turn. And the first one — the foundation of all the others — is this found in this single verse, verse 25….

What if the chakra system, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Western clinical science were all describing the same body — from three different doors? In this episode of The Human Skills, Dr. Connie Cheung — DPT and functional medicine practitioner — tells the story of how a lifelong skeptic came to read all three maps of the body at once. Trained to measure and prove, Connie spent years dismissing chakras and meridians as unprovable. Then her own health crisis changed everything. This episode lays three maps side by side — the Western nervous-and-endocrine system, the yogic chakra system, and the Chinese medicine view of qi, meridians, and emotion-organ connections — and explores why three traditions, built by people who never met, keep pointing at the same places in the body. No prior knowledge needed — each system is explained in plain language. And the claim stays honest: these maps rhyme, they don't prove each other. This is integrative, mind-body health for anyone tired of choosing between the cold medical map and the warm energetic one.
We all have different abilities, gifts and talents. Within corporate church systems, some members of the body are recruited or convinced they are 'called' to function in a part of the ministry they are not comfortable with. Others have chastised those who believe or function in a gift they themselves do not operate in and will teach that certain spiritual gifts have become obsolete. This can be the result of misunderstanding or misinterpreting Bible verses ... or can be the product of leftover theology someone shared with them that gets blended into various teaching—whether it is rooted in legalism or grace. Let's encourage one another in love without forcing people to become Christian robots or some type of duplicated cookie cutter from the 'assembly' line. The best way to approach this is to allow God to teach us about love. --Available on Amazon - "Clash of The Covenants: Escaping Religious Bondage Through the Grace Guarantee" https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0713ZSKY7

What does it look like to pursue unity in a divided world?In this episode of the CGN Podcast, Daniel Williams and Brian Brodersen sit down with Evan Wickham—pastor of Park Hill Church in San Diego and worship leader—to discuss the beauty and challenge of cultivating unity within the body of Christ.Evan shares stories from eight years of church planting, navigating seasons of leadership transition, and preparing to become a grandfather. Together, they explore why clarity and love must go hand in hand, how worship can bring believers together across denominational lines, and why rediscovering the richness of the historic church can strengthen our witness today.From citywide prayer gatherings and songwriting sessions with Christians from different traditions to practical encouragement for pastors seeking deeper relationships within the broader church, this conversation is a timely reminder that Jesus' prayer for unity still matters.As we prepare for the CGN International Ministry Conference 2026, this episode invites us to consider what it means to be the church in the world—for such a time as this.Join us for the CGN International Ministry Conference, June 28–July 1, 2026, at Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa.For registration and conference details, visit:CGN International Ministry Conference
Pastor Chris continues our teaching series entitled “1st Corinthians: Practical Answers to Real Problems.” In this seventeenth study of the series, "Many Parts, One Body,” we study in 1st Corinthians 12:12-31 as the Apostle Paul seeks to help his Corinthian friends understand and live in the importance of both the unity of participation of the local church and the supernatural gifts/graces God gives us to grow us towards each other and into a mature representation of Jesus.

By David Morker - In Leviticus 23:9–17, the accepted Wave Sheaf comes first, and only then does the counting begin toward the gathered firstfruits offering; this points us to Jesus Christ, the accepted Firstfruits before our Father, through whom the called body and bride are gathered. In Romans 15:4–13, Paul shows
All Christians are given spiritual gifts to serve the body of Christ. We should pray for wisdom and read the Word to be able to discern our gifts, believing that we are gifted for a purpose. The post Rescued, Part 18: One Body, Many Parts appeared first on Reston Bible Church.

#50 in our series, "The Book of Romans: A Theology of Hope"
This week takes us deep into 1 Corinthians 12-13, challenging our tendency to obsess over individual spiritual gifts while missing the entire point: we all share the same Spirit. The text dismantles the spiritual hierarchy many of us unconsciously create, where certain gifts seem more impressive or valuable than others. Whether it's prophecy, healing, administration, or hospitality, every gift flows from the same divine source and serves the same purpose—building up the body of Christ. We're reminded that in the early church, believers had to overcome massive cultural barriers: Jews and Greeks worshiping together, slaves and free people sharing communion as equals. If they could transcend those divisions through the power of the Spirit, what's our excuse? It's time we confront our self-centered approach to spirituality, where we're more concerned with discovering our personal gifting than with serving others sacrificially. The truth is revolutionary: when we're connected to the gift-giver, we have access to all the gifts as the Spirit determines and the body needs. This isn't about building our ministry or platform; it's about being the hands, feet, and heart of Jesus to one another. The call is clear—stop playing status games, stop keeping records of wrongs, and start seeing every member of the body as indispensable, including ourselves.

Was the Apostle Paul Torah-observant — not just before the Damascus road, but throughout his apostleship to the nations? Brad East stakes out a thesis drawn from Messianic Judaism and the Paul Within Judaism school: that Acts 21 should be read straight, that James is telling the truth about Paul, and that Genesis 12 and 17 still bind Jewish believers. Derek Rishmawy and Alastair Roberts push back hard, working through Galatians 2, 1 Corinthians 9, and the question of whether the law's force after Christ is divine command or Hookerian adiaphora — with the future of Jewish identity in the church in view. — Get the free ebook Spiritual Formation for the Family at http://mereorthodoxy.com/family.

This week in our Sisters and Brothers sermon series, Pastor John Durham taught from Romans 12:3-8, challenging us to embrace our unique gifts as grace from God, meant to serve others and build up the Church as one body in Christ. He reminded us that this kind of unity and service can only happen when we lay aside our pride.

“The Church is communion with Jesus.” The Catechism shows us what it means for the Church to be considered the “body of Christ”. Fr. Mike explains how being part of the Church makes us “united in him, in his body”—more intimately connected with Jesus than even the Apostles were. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 787-791.
